    I was surprised when I started at my current job that our marketing department was as big as it was for a (relatively) small company..

    About every six months a new student would be hired on (as part of their college or university course) to help manage our online presence. Their official title is "Social Coordinator" - I create their email address and various accounts & then marketing takes care of access to Facebook, Instagram, etc.

    I constantly seem to be getting emails like this:

    First of all, I know this is just phish-bait, but it's probably
    based on the perception that there are people out there looking
    to hire help for that kind of thing.
